Ultimate Bet 0.25/0.50 Omaha/8 (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 2, 8, A, 7.
Hero calls, UTG+1 calls, 1 fold, MP1 calls, 3 folds, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (6 SB) 7, Q, K (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, MP1 checks, Button checks.

Turn: (3 BB) 6 (6 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero...?

What should I do here with so many people still in the pot on the turn? Bet out or go for a check raise (the button is fairly aggressive)?
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

You have a draw to the nut high and the nut low. I bet out here. No one has shown aggression yet so why go for check-raise that you might not even have the chance to do? I would've bet the flop as well.

TLR is an unknown quantity at this point
Depends on whether you play limit, no limit or pot limit.

You got a lot of outs and you want to build the pot if you hit, however you dont want to pay too much to see the river card.

In a limit game I would bet,
In pot limit I would bet 1/2 the pot
In NL I check

My bad, this is a limit game.

I actually checked, the button bet and I caught some middle callers for 2 bets after I raised it up. Then the river was a brick and I folded
